USEFUL INFORMATIONAbout The YTRADITION OF VOLUNTEERS Volunteers have always played a critical role in helping the Y fulfill our mission of service to the community and to all the people who come through our doors. We welcome any skill or time you can offer. People working together — it’s a Y tradition.

ATTIRE Appropriate shirts, shorts, and footwear are required during exercise in the workout rooms, gyms, track, or racquetball and squash courts. Street shoes are not permitted. Proper swimming suits are required in the swimming pool; cut-offs and gym shorts are not permitted. For racquetball and squash play, it is strongly recommended that “eye guards” be worn.

At YMCA SOUTHCOAST, we believe camping is about having fun and developing skills while offering opportunities that allow children to grow to their fullest potential. We develop character at camp by teaching and demonstrating our core values of honesty, respect, caring and responsibility to our campers. Our five summer day camps provide your child multiple opportunities to learn new skills, develop confidence and character, and make new friends.

PARENTS TRUST USYMCA SOUTHCOAST Day Camps provide a happy, healthy environment for children to learn and grow. Children have the opportunity to build self-confidence, independence, and creativity, while parents have the peace of mind knowing their children are in a safe and enriching place.

SAFETY ∙ Accreditation & LicensingYMCA Southcoast day camps operate according to standards set forth by the American Camp Association (ACA). ACA accredits each of our day camp programs. The ACA believes “Camp gives kids a World of Good®” because camp is a building block to the successful development of young people. This independent body establishes standards for key aspects of camp operation, program quality, health and safety of campers. The ACA accreditation includes an on-site visitation every three years. Our partnership with ACA means we promote fun and learning in a safe environment. Our campers are staffed by counselors who are genuinely interested in working with children—certified in First Aid and CPR. Each staff member must pass a rigorous background check before they start working at camp. In addition, each camp complies with regulations of the Massachusetts Department of Health and local boards of health.

Contact the camp or download the 2014 Camp Brochure online for all the details of our camp offerings available for your child this summer.

With your help, and the help of others, the food grown here will be distributed by the Hunger Commission (a program of the United Way of Greater New Bedford) across the south coast to feed our neighbors in need. As Sharing the Harvest begins its ninth season, we will push ourselves (and you) again, with the goal of 65,000 pounds of fresh produce to hunger relief on the south coast. To accomplish that we will need all the volunteers we can get and hope you’re interested in being one. Over the first eight years, more than 11,000 volunteers have come to work on the farm, donating more than 20,000 hours of their talent and time. Thanks to those thousands of volunteers, Sharing the Harvest has donated more than 200,000 pounds of fresh produce since 2006. Volunteers can expect to do anything ranging from planting seeds to transplanting seedlings to cultivating plants to harvesting crops. Volunteer drop-in hours are Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday from 9 am to 12 pm and 2 pm to 5 pm and Saturdays from 9 am to 12 pm. If you are interested in volunteering at Sharing the Harvest Farm, contact our Volunteer Development Coordinator, Ellen Selley at 508 993 3361 x13 or [email protected], or visit our website at ymcasouthcoast.org and click on the Dartmouth YMCA page.
